Economic concerns are once again showing up on Wall Street's radar, as worries grow that months of elevated interest rates may be starting to hurt U.S. growth. For months, investors had been heartened by cooling inflation and gradually slowing employment, believing they bolstered the case for the Fed to begin cutting interest rates. Now that a September rate cut has come into view following a Fed meeting earlier this week, investors are worried that the central bank may have left rates at restrictive levels for too long, allowing them to take a toll on economic growth.  ( 68 min )

It's been a rollercoaster ride of a week and Friday is shaping up to be no exception for investors, with risk assets in particular set for a heavy beating when Europe wakes up. All it took was a softer-than-expected ISM report on U.S. manufacturing for markets to start fretting about the economic outlook and abandon their optimism over the Federal Reserve's signals on a September rate cut. The fear now is that the Fed may be behind the curve in easing rates, and traders have priced in an even greater chance of a 50-basis-point cut next month, versus the previous consensus of 25 bps.  ( 67 min )
